check the internal resistance of your fuel injectors. I believe they are supposed to be 8 ohms.

Mine would misfire due to bad coils and I had no CEL either. It just could be on the edge of the tolerance and the computer is not picking it up until it gets worse.

White plugs are nothing but bad news, does your fuel pressure fall after 3k? is the duty cycle of your injectors changing at 3k? you need to measure your fuel pressure, and make sure your getting full pressure to the injectors consistantly in the RPMS. Than see if your duty cycle is changing, if you do have correct fuel pressures..

White plug= lean condition= mucho damage my friend.
